    Nice season, congrats again. Kentucky is just relentless, they give you very few openings.

    Yep just too much talent. I would love to see them get upset by UNC, Ohio State, or Kansas. Calipari's comments on Quincy Miller just makes him sound like the biggest **** in college basketball.

    :cool:
    I'm with you, can't stand Calipari or Kentucky for that matter. Not sure who has the best chance to knock them off, maybe Ohio St., would have said UNC with a healthy Marshall. Not sure Louisville has enough offense.

    For those who missed it: http://www.wildcatworld.com/?p=18577

    Miller actually visited Kentucky's campus 5 times and was a top 5 recruit. Yeah he doesn't remember who Miller is :rolleyes:


    The bench plus Miller went 1/18. That was the difference in the game.

    I guess Quincy made the wrong choice!

    Nice game. You were SO close. As usual, there is always next year. Unless there isn't a next year...

    I'll check back from time to time...

    ^Can't see what the douche wrote but you don't have a leg to stand on. Everyone including Aggie fans think you're one of the biggest losers on this board.

    Edit: Btw, Baylor is 6-2 in the tourney since I created this thread. Scott Drew haters need to eat some crow.

    The difference was Baylor got exposed. They get handled by very good teams and were lucky to play double-digit seeds before the Elite Eight. (UNLV or Duke would have likely beaten them earlier).

    I also think Calipari is a better coach than Scott Drew and I don't think much of Calipari.

    No, they wouldn't have likely beaten them. They couldn't even get there to have a chance. I don't give a crap about what seeds we played to get to the Elite 8. The fact is that we got there while superior teams like Duke got "exposed" by a midget team like Lehigh. :rolleyes:

    Kentucky is the cream of the crop. They're going to coast to a title. Kentucky is the only team that could handle Baylor right now. I would take my chances against teams like Kansas, Ohio State, Louisville any day over a team like Kentucky.

    No shame in losing to Kentucky. Nobody is going to beat them this year.

    Wish Perry had played the whole game like he did the second half.

    LOL at aggy trash talk. What a douche bag.

    As much as it sucks to lose, I'm glad Quincy Acy finished his last game at Baylor like the beast he is. Most of that Kentucky roster will be in the NBA next year, and Quincy showed he can play with them. There are several mock drafts leaving Acy undrafted, I hope yesterday showed scouts he shouldn't be overlooked.

    If Mikke Moore could last 10+ years in the NBA, who knows? Acy did himself proud Saturday. Props to him.

    I still believe Drew is a far better recruiter than he is a coach. But what he's been able to accomplish is stuff I didn't think was possible at BU. Make no mistake though...when you recruit that level of talent, you need to be making runs in the tournament. I say the same stuff about Calipari. Not sure if that makes me a hater...just my honest opinion.

    Sic em, lady Bears! :p One more left.

    Anyway, I wanted to point out the state of the Baylor athletic program.

    The football team finished 12th with RG 3 winning the Heisman.

    Baylor men's basketball team went to the Elite 8 and were top 10 for most of the season.

    Women's basketball team is on the cusp of another title.

    The Baylor baseball team is currently ranked 18th.

    Men's track & field is ranked 12th while the women's team is 13th.

    I wonder if he would make a reserve spot on the Yates bball team. Probably not.
